New programming model every five years

107 Views

Hello,

I am watching open sap course "Building Apps with the ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model". Marcel Hermanns just said something that pretty shocked me. "We want to introduce new programming model every five years". Maybe I am over reacting, but it is not uncommon for implementation projects to take not much less time. Are we going into the direction, where every other client has different programming model? That's pretty sharp turn from R3 Abap, which was pretty stable for many years. What's the point of learning RAP if in few years it could be replaced with something else, while there are still so many customers working on ABAP 7.5 and lower versions?

I hope you will prove me wrong or I do not understand something,
